Mini has 4 times the space, and you can actually choose what songs you want to listen to. It also has games, organiser, clock, alarm, audio preferences, screen.

Shuffle is cheap because you can't choose what you want to listen to.

[QUOTE]Shuffle is cheap because you can't choose what you want to listen to.[/QUOTE] why the balls would you want that then? fukin things are like 125 dollars (us) and you cant choose what song you want.

I have never heard that i thought the Shuffle was like any other flash Mp3 player.

i really like the size and weight of the shuffle, but if you cant skip around songs that would be pretty lame. or if it is always on "shuffle" i wouldnt buy it either.

so i was real bored-like and i set up just my bass, snares, and hats up left handed. and i was grooving alot better like that. i'm naturally left handed, but i've always played on a right handed kit, and with cymbals and everything, left handed feels weird. but stripped down, i felt so comfortable. hmm, now that's a dilemma.

well right now i'm listening to some mozart (yum) and talking to my friend about camping. it's d'amn expensive. i thought it would be $20-ish for a night for all 8 of us. but it's turning out to be $75-90 for a night :amaze: .

Haha man your a busy guy!

yea i was just reading about it and it seems that its always in shuffle. I would look into the mini or other companies

I just have a 20 gig'r

Works great for me, also use it to swap music/files with friends as it acts just like a portable HD too.

[QUOTE=trysthedrummer]Hello all. Hows everyone doing on here. Someone persuade me to buy a Tama Superstar drum ok.[/QUOTE]

hahahahahaha :lol:

haha look at the kid fall. :lol:

Dang that was one heck of a slap.. hahaha


On a side note the right side of my back is absurdly sore.. I think it was from a hard wipeout surfing yesterday..

well, listening to mozart has "inspired" me to write a song in the style of a symphony. i've done some small bits like it, but i want a huge song. wish me luck :thumb:

Man I love classical music.

Check out some Paganini and Bach :cool:

i have some artsy asian music im uploading to post here, you guys might appreciate it. if you have ever seen a traditional asian movie, its the same stuff that provides ambience for the scenes.

^ i'd love some artsy asian music. i'm always into the good ol' "unconventional" (think that's the wrong adjective here, but oh well) music when i'm just bored on my computer.

OBSCURITY!

I just saw your avatar again and I just remembered:
3 Inches of Blood, that guy is no longer the drummer. I think he either quit or got kicked out.

[quote]
Just days away from their U.S. tour with Chimaira et al, 3 Inches Of Blood have announced the departure of drummer Matt Wood. According to the band, "Matt informed us last month that he would be leaving the band once we got home at the end of June. The reasons given were both musical and personal, but there's no animosity between us. We respect Matt's decision, but are moving forward and still playing." For now, the group has enlisted the services of drummer Alexei Rodriguez (ex-Walls Of Jericho, Catharsis).[/quote]

Whats wrong with Superstars? (in regards to Jims post above).
Thanks.

What ever drummer needs in his practice arsenal!

:cool:
I just picked up the new vic firth pad, i've had the corpsmasters for awhile and the good ole' MA-30 click. I looked all over for my stick control book to add in and can't find it :( I tore the house apart lookin for it too.

Sure beats playin on the top of an old throne like I used to down here :lol:

you need to dump that vic firth stuff and come home to promark ;)

i always end up twirling the sticks and practicing BD combinations with my feet ~ rudiments, i need to practice rudiments! [IMG]http://users.adelphia.net/~d2rook/pics/wut.gif[/IMG]

i just bought that pad today.

i need to go out and buy a practice pad.

The Click sounds like a military weapon.

Yeah, those corps masters rule for practice sticks, I picked up a pair for pads (or in my case...pillow), I'm already noticing results when I go back to my usual sticks. Great for building up wrist and finger strength. Stick control is great, I've been working on doing those exercises with the hands and feet, to build chops, and for some awesome beats, rudiments used in beats and grooves can sound pretty awesome.

Deffinlety man, keep workin those fingers!

sorry to change the subject, but how to you pronounce vinnie caluatia (no idea how to spell it)

Ralph's are okay, but everybody uses them. THere's better out there.

Try Jim Cassella Corpsmaster sticks. I fricken love those things.

The best chop builders from my experience are the MS2 Corpsmasters. I just bought a new pair and have been working Stick Control for the past couple of days on my old Ludwig Vacuum pad! :lol:

[QUOTE]Ralph's are okay, but everybody uses them[/QUOTE]
For good reason ;)

I got some Pro Mark TXDC3SW marching sticks, but I dont use them much I got them to try out different sizes and feel. My question maybe silly and noobish but Im not to proud to ask. Why does the heavy sticks build chops better? Because of the weight? Or the size or the combination, I would love a short explantion please, thank you.

Just like how everybody likes Travis Barker for good reason?

i say it "call - eeee - oo (as in tooth) - ta"

well i just got back from my friends, and we were watching harold and kumar. wow, i saw it before and thought it was funny, but the second time around was torture. i have to say, i hated it this time. and i was supposed to go into work at 7, but now i'm getting a ride in at 10, and working till 5. 3 hours less than i wanted, but money is money i guess. i think i'm mowing again tomorrow, which is a good thing. i can even bring my new discman. :thumb:

did anyone see conan yesterday? max went to ozzfest, and said mastodon, shadows fall, and lamb of god were amazing. i don't like shadows fall, but the other 2 are amazing. i woulda never have guessed max to say that.

Yeah I saw that!

I was like sweet, Max is so gnarly.

By the way, I pronounce it "Call Eh Ou Tah".

Jim, I know your online right now. Tell me your AIM/MSN/ICQ and I will send you Stick Control.

Vinnie Colaiuta.

Cool-ee-aa-taa

It's around here somewhere I don't need a copy.
